Grendon is a small village in the district of North Warwickshire, in the county of Warwickshire, England. It sits amid gently rolling farmland a short distance from the market town of Atherstone and within commuting range of Nuneaton and Coventry, so it combines a peaceful rural character with reasonable access to larger towns and transport links.
The village has medieval roots and retains many traditional features - stone cottages, a village hall and a local pub - and an active parish community. Historically shaped by agriculture, its economy today includes commuters and local small businesses, while the quiet lanes, hedgerows and nearby waterways make it typical of rural Warwickshire and attractive to those seeking village life near urban amenities.
